DG Communication produces a number of geographical maps of the European Union. They can be used by anybody who informs others about Europe and might want to print or show a correct geographical map. We provide these maps in our own publications, but also offer the files free of charge or copyright restrictions to other communicators. We continuously ensure that the content is correct.
"The EU in slides" is a selection of PowerPoint slides outlining the basics of what the European Union is, what it does, and how it works. They are a flexible aid for teachers and speakers giving presentations about the EU. They are open for editing - any of our multipliers can re-use the illustrations, graphs, or template. The content also shows a number of tangible advantages of the EU, as well as the more traditional subjects of EU history, treaties and institutions.

A handful of useful brochures, leaflets and posters published by the Secretariat General of the Council could help you to clarify the unclear branding of three important European institutions. At least as far as the two EU institutions amongst the three are concerned. The European Council and the Council of the EU are, after all, two key players in the EU’s decision-making process, bringing together the Member States, their governments, and head of states and government of all 28 EU Member States.
